Localization of a Stitch

Embird Embroidery Software Tutorial

1 - Run Embird and click the "Editor" menu to switch to the Editor window.

2 - Open the design using the "File > Open" menu.

3 - Type the same stitch number into both the "Initial Stitch" (1) and "Ending Stitch" (2) boxes located in the main toolbar at the top of the Editor window. In this example, we have localized stitch no. 1000 (Picture No. 1).

1. Specify the same Initial and Ending stitch

4 - Move the mouse pointer to any of the color boxes on the right side of the screen and click the right mouse button. A popup menu will appear. Choose the "Hide All Colors" command from this menu (Picture No. 2).

2. Hide all colors

5 - All colors will be hidden; only the selection remains visible. In our example, only stitch no. 1000 is selected; therefore, all stitches before 1000 and after 1000 will be hidden, and only stitch no. 1000 is visible (Picture No. 3).

6 - Now you can use the "Edit > Stitch Type" menu to change the type of the selected stitch.

Note: Another way of selecting a stitch is shown in the Change Stitch Type tutorial.

3. Only stitch no. 1000 is shown
